Ascendencia de Gaspar Martin Barragan
Saludos Primos y Primas,
In another thread (Question regarding the Mollinedo and Villasenor line.), among other things, we discussed the family of Gaspar Martin Barragan and how we don't know what branch of the Martin Barragans he belongs to. Here's what the family looks like:
Gaspar Martin Barragan cc Teresa de Torres y Maciel
Based on the info above and baptismal records, this family moved around Tamazula, Zapotlan el Grande, and Tizapan el Alto. The question is who were the parents of Gaspar Martin Barragan and Teresa de Torres y Maciel? The answer lies in the documents related to a capellania that was founded by Juan Martin Barragan, an uncle of Gaspar Martin Barragan. Here's the link to that capellania:
Capellania fundada por Juan Martin Barragan
The capellania is a treasure-trove of information for this family. In it we learn that Juan Martin Barragan, Gaspar's uncle, used to own La Hacienda de San Diego de Zitala, that he bought directly from Diego de Villasenor Bocanegra for the amount of 10,000 pesos.
We also learn that the parents of Gaspar Martin Barragan were:
Diego Martin Barragan cc Antonia Sanchez Banales (Daughter of Juan Sanchez Banales cc Catalina de Alcaraz)
We also discover that the parents of Teresa de Torres y Maciel were:
Sebastian de Torres cc Francisca Maciel
The question now is, who was Diego Martin Barragan that married Antonia Sanchez Banales?
For now, I don't have an answer. However, here are some clues:
The above clues might point to Juan Martin Barragan cc Micaela Balbuena as the possible father of Diego Martin Barragan cc Antonia Sanchez Banales, the timeline works. However, there's no proof that I've found of this. I'll keep looking, but, I wanted to see if anyone else has any clues as to who fathered Diego Martin Barragan cc Antonia Sanchez Banales and Juan Martin Barragan cc Maria de la Parra.
Thanks,
Daniel Serna Valencia
